For those kids who can easily afford $15 more, sure

Via IGN.com Is this the first official announcement of the “First Ones” aka Core ? @admin 51B5B97B-2477-400F-ADD1-3960A785B8B1.jpeg

Paramount and Mattel announce multi-year global partnership to produce TMNT products Does that mean more Turtles of Grayskull lol?? It does mean more Turtles from Mattel! Not sure what that means for...

I remember this episode well, have seen it not too long ago. Loved the mystery, seeing Buzz-Off and Whiplash, that hilarious scene with Skeletor riding W and MM… A strong showing!

It’s very nice to hear he has a warm relationship to the property. Also interesting that He-Man & Co were cheaper in the US, cheaper than the much smaller Star Wars toys. I had to beg my mom to bu...

@lasastard Many times, when doing digital scans of any kind, the human artist is needed to correct, adjust, etc Using just the machine can go wrong just like when you trace a photograph, the drawing c...

Excellent choices 👏 👏 👏  

@admin Man-At-Arms Face looks kinda long, and I’m still not sure about the expression. Might depend on the angle, though. I do really like the oxidation on his armor. Nice touch.

Not that I *have* to have the last word, but what I mean is that in a crisis, you ship wherever you can, however you can, it doesn’t always make sense– that’s the nature of a crisis. They would ship i...

I thought the new are supposedly DC figures were 6.5 inches… Someone else made a good point, that the stylized Masterverse may not have been as good for the likeness of the human actors. But then, we ...

@smitty-81 Opened mine today. I liked the random assortment of characters in the mini-comic, and even though there’s that canonical problem / story issue in the middle, (which is mostly just…unclear?!...

Got my Blast-Attack and I’m really happy with how he turned out. The first time I “exploded” him, I let out a loud “aaahaha”. I love how vibrant he is, especially the shiny gold. I have no comparison,...

That’s so sad. It is so difficult to find care that doesn’t kill you financially, no matter where you live. Dementia is awful, too, including for the loved ones. Being in a new surrounding can acceler...

@sci-fitsunami I’ve seen a (still) picture somewhere, too, in a video by some pseudo influencer. Couldn’t tell if it as fake or not. If they make him in Chronicles now, that means he’s in the movie, w...

@firmpulse Someone here said it was an AI Fake…? Not sure either way.

Well, you are kinda denying, that the Pandemic had anything to do with early Origins distribution problems, but I know your hatred of Mattel won’t allow any excuses. Even a once in a century plague. B...

Not to continue with Origins topics here, I think the vehicles / beasts from the “First Ones” could work with some of the various Origins iterations, too. He’s slimmer than Vintage He-Man, but for som...

@admin It’s difficult, because if they say they only planned for this year, it feels like it’s canceled– the date is not now, but end of 2026. The wording sounds very much, like they will do some fina...

Definitely heard a lot of complaints from German collectors about some figures not being available. Or had to pay extra through other channels. I think Thunderpunch He-Man was another one. Wait, if yo...

C’mon. It was a global disruption, yes some areas were more affected than others, but also constantly shifting etc etc That’s what a global disaster does. Every company was struggling with shipping fr...

@smitty-81 The one I’d still love to see is comparison with that Vintage Origin He-Man… because that should be pretty close in height… but Origins is probably much wider. TNI had one more pic up from ...

@sci-fitsunami On the front page news, @admin talks about his interaction with Mattel, which sounds very much like announcing the end *except* vintage, but there seems to be some wiggle room possible.

@sketchyskeletor While I agree with many of your criticisms, when it comes to those first several waves of Origins, please let’s not be some of those people who forget (or deny) there was a worldwide ...

That’s a very fair price. For that price, they are cool!

Nah, these are much smaller, and much cheaper. Chronicles is what will replace MV, sadly… Guys for $10!, for kids, these are cool. Totally. Kinda Origins size, but smaller than Cartoon Collection…
